Talking What I won at the Holiday Meet...

First and foremost, BIG THANKS to:

--Elizabeth (AsianGirl007) for organizing the Holiday Meet, and for giving me the opportunity (and success) for modding my car with a Wald Trunk Spoiler. Also, thanks to Dave @ Status Auto Design for hooking ClubLexus with the spoiler during our meet. You guys are awesome!

and,

---Joe Ortiz, of Backyard Creations in South El Monte, for perfectly prepping and sanding, perfectly custom color matching, and perfectly installing the spoiler!!! He provided the best service and business, and I am grateful. Thanks to Henry (rominl) for providing the recommendation; I cannot imagine anyone else doing any better than Joe.

Here are some pics:

that's awesome phil, congrats again!!!!! i am glad you like the work by joe!

how about the weight of the spoiler, does it add a lot of weight to the spoiler causing it to slam down hard?

I have no qualms saying:

"I will never take my car for any body/paint work unless if it's Joe at Backyard Creations."

Agreed. Joe said the paint on my GS will look "average" compared with what he's going to do with my MR2 (my GS was painted in the old shop in an old-school spray booth).

Considering how stunning the GS came out, suffice it to say I can't wait to see the Mister!

Looks great, Doc!

Looking good.

Looks a little out of place without the full kit? Come on man, complete the package.

It came out awesome Phil - I can't wait to see it in person tomorrow.

....and...psst...you did what I did at the holiday meet and forgot to thank the source - Dave @ Status Auto Design.

Now....where's Kari with the Tom's Kit?
